About

Japan’s street food stalls have served hearty udon to weary travelers since the 1600s. Join us to make udon from scratch with the traditional Japanese foot-stomping method (wear your good socks!). It’s easy, energetic, and fun. We’ll do everything by hand (and foot!), from mixing and kneading to rolling out an even dough and hand-cutting into the classic rustic noodles – no special equipment necessary. 

The thick noodles are versatile and can be slurped hot or cold, with diverse sauces that are highly regional. We will taste our noodles three ways:

• Swirled into a traditional udon broth (sweet and savory).
• Dipped into a walnut miso sauce (another favorite packed with umami).
• Finally, with our freshly made noodles, we will create the street food favorite, yaki-udon (a hearty dish of stir-fried noodles, vegetables, and pork). 

You'll take home extra noodles for the freezer plus printed recipes, as well as a deeper understanding of washoku, the ancient Japanese food traditions that make meal preparation fun as well as transformative for your health.
